Woah, what's this? Another Lenovo leak? Who would've guessed? This one's the IdeaPad U1 which you can use as a notebook or you can rip off the screen to make it an 11.6-inch tablet. In notebook form, this'll be powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo ULV CPU and Windows 7 Home Premium. In tablet form, it'll be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz CPU and will contain a 16GB SSD, and Lenovo's own Skylight Linux interface. This notebook tablet hybrid will be available in June with a $999 price tag. Wait until CES 2010 for more information.

Wow, Viliv is stepping their game up. They look like they're just about ready to unveil the Viliv N5, S10, HD5, and the P3. First up is what you see above, the S10 Blade. This netbook tablet features: a 10.1-inch multi-toucshcreen swiveling display with a 1,366 x 768 resolution, 32GB / 64GB / 128GB SSD capacities, an Intel Atom Z530 / Z550 CPU, 1GB of DDR2 SDRAM, WiFi b/g / Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR support, a webcam, a battery life of 10 hours, and Windows 7 Home Premium.

Well this is pretty interesting. This is the Skiff Reader that's sporting an 11.5-inch touchscreen display (with a 1,600 x 1,200 resolution), which is the biggest reader of its kind. I don't believe the thickness was mentioned, but if we go by the picture it's looking pretty damn thin. This reader will be outed with WiFi and connectivity to Sprint's 3G network. I'm hoping that it'll be coloured, but it doesn't look like it will be. The price hasn't been mentioned, but it'll hopefully be available sometime this year. I wonder if it'll look that hot when it gets shown off in public.

Update: According to Maximum PC, this e-book reader will measure right around 0.25 inches thick, which is pretty amazing.

A new Samsung handset has just escaped the deserts of the earth and has decided to show itself. This one's the Samsung S5550 and it's a slider. According to the leak, this handset will have an AMOLED QVGA display, a 5MP camera with a Power LED flash, 3G / Bluetooth support, an FM radio, and a microSD card slot.

It looks like Plemix (an e-tailer) now has the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 available for €490 ($707 USD and $800 CAD). It could be a bit high priced at this point since it's rocking last year's Qualcomm CPU. The rest of the specs are great, but it does seem a bit overpriced. If you've been waiting for it though, go out and get it now. It's a WinMo 6.5 handset.

Amazon (here) looks like they now have the Asus UL30Vt available on their website, but just for pre-orders. This notebook is listed at $849 USD and its sporting: a 13.3-inch display, 4GB of RAM, an Intel SU7300 1.3GHz ULV CPU, a 500GB HDD, Nvidia G210M / Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics (swappable), and 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium OS. The shipping date hasn't been mentioned, but we'll hopefully know soon.

According to Digitimes, MSI will be showing off that dual-screen e-book reader we've been hearing a bit about at CES this week. This e-book reader will sport a Nvidia Tegra CPU, which could be overkill if you're just planning on reading books. The rumour is also stating that we'll see MSI's first 3D notebook at CES 2010 as well, so let's see what happens.

We've seen a couple of Haleron netbooks in the past, so this is a new one from them. This is their iLEN tablet. I believe we'll see this at CES 2010, but I'm not sure. It's got: a 10.1-inch touchscreen display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, an Intel Atom N450 CPU, 2GB of RAM, a 160GB HDD, a 1.3MP webcam, WiFi a/b/g, Bluetooth support, 3G connectivity, Windows 7, and a 3,500 mAh battery that should last around 2.5 hours. The battery is looking mediocre at this point, and the rest of the specs are alright as well. This tablet should start shipping on January 15th for $419 USD.

It looks like my laptop, the Dell Inspiron 15, is about to get refreshed. It's already been spotted at Costco and this new refresh will include an Intel Core i3 Dual-Core CPU. It'll also be outed with integrated graphics, a 320GB HDD, the same 15.6-inch display, and 4GB of RAM. Of course, when this hits Dell's site it'll be customizable.

At this point, the Sony Ericsson Kurara hasn't even been officially introduced yet, but a new picture of it looks like it has just popped up. Well, it's got the Kurara looks but it's clearly packing a QWERTY keyboard, which looks like it was seriously half-assed. Maybe Sony Ericsson decided to tack on a QWERTY keyboard on this handset, since their cameraphone king will still be the Satio. It's clearly running S60 5th Edition, but let's hope they make it official... you know, this week.

Update: According to Fone Arena, this handset is being named (or at least codenamed) the "Kanna." It's said to be sporting: a 3.2-inch touchscreen display with a 360 x 640 resolution, a QWERTY keyboard, WiFi, a 3.5mm headphone jack, an 8.1MP AF camera, and S60 5th Edition.

Ever wonder what the Palm Pixi would look like in pink? Well, you're going to have to wait for another day, but this leak shows us that the future could be near. What you see above is Sprint's inventory system, so it looks like a pink Palm Pixi could be making its way to shelves. I wonder who's going to go out and buy one...

And it's now official. Lenovo has just announced the upcoming Thinkpad x100e netbook. Unlike most of the netbooks that we see nowadays this will actually be running on an AMD CPU with ATI's graphics. The basic single-core model should be available as soon as the next couple of days, but the dual-core CPU variant will be coming later this quarter. The specs are below, courtesy of Netbooked.

Update: As of April 6th, Netbooked has pointed out that the AMD dual-core CPU options (Athlon Neo X2 L335 1.6GHz and the Turion Neo X2 L625 1.6GHz) are now available. Check them out here.

Samsung has just made a bunch of netbooks official that we'll see more of at CES 2010 this week. This morning they made the Samsung N210 / N220, N150, and NB30 netbooks all official. Of course, all of them are sporting the new Intel Pine Trail N450 Atom CPU. All of the specs are below, courtesy of Netbooked and Engadget.

Freescale is planning to show this off at CES, this is their smartbook tablet. They're aiming this to be a low-cost tablet and will feature: a 7-inch touchscreen display with a 1,024 x 600 resolution, 512MB of DDR2 RAM, a 1GHz i.MX515 CPU, up to 64GB of internal storage, a microSD card slot, optional 3G support, WiFi b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 / GPS support, a USB 2.0 port, audio jacks, a 3MP webcam, and a 1,900 mAh battery. The device weighs 0.8 pounds and could be available for around $200, but we'll see if they pull through on that promise.
